Could The Palpitations Be Caused Due To Androgel?

I m a 50 yr old 160 lb triathlete. Take lots of supplements incl 50 mg DHA & 100 pregnenolone. Still have low normal test. Been on 3 pumps (37.5 mg of test) Androgel 5 days for 5days . I m having lots of palpitations. Is this common with strong athletic hearts using gel ? Will it go away in week 2 or do we need a different approach? ,

Hello

Yes hormonal supplement can sometimes be the cause of your palpitations. If you stop using the supplements it will go away within 2 weeks but if you want to continue with the supplements then you need to consult with your doctor regarding these palpitations.
